I was feeling absolutely terrible 5-8 days after my post op (sticking to the strict liquid diet, slowly advancing to mushie foods) I was having severe hunger pains (which I had never had before) and felt very weak and frustrated. Around day 8/9, I decided to start eating more solid protein/food. I instantly felt a TON better, like a whole new person. I certainly will never regret that decision. I've been eating whole food ever since and can tell I'm ready for a fill in a few weeks. My only suggestion would be to watch what you eat because if you aren't careful you can get some pretty intense trapped gas pains, which are no fun at all.
